Jeez, Gary definitely went overboard with how many games he made her buy. The Wii U at that point only had a couple games worth having. Mario, Lego City, Zombie U, a couple others. Definitely not that many games.

Well, at least Gary suggested she stick with learning about video games/cosplaying for the time being - which is right up her fanbase's alley, thus improving her career as a model.

Too bad Tatianna has other plans for her modeling career and could potentially ruin it all for her (which would make both her and Senna happy).

Here's hoping that if it comes down to that, that Zoe swoops in and saves the day somehow.

Is that Marie's room in the fourth panel? If so she's just as nerdy/geeky as Gary with all the action figures and comic books on those shelves.

Looks like she's wrestling with a Mimzy Molar doll too. If she finds out Sandra was her too at the convention she'll be over the moon.

Just add the Emma Frost-esque lingerie and Sandra will have to deal with Evel Knievel Grand Canyon expectations from the fans...

Yes it was, and it remains to be one of my favourite online comic to read (I might be biased since I know Josh since the late 90s... nope, nope, I'm not biased, Josh is just that good of an author)...

Hmm. Wouldn't Sandra being seen purchasing games stuff after the show suggest to at least some fans that she was a parvenu, just as she feared? After all, if she was for real, she'd have all that stuff already, wouldn't she?

Though it might just be the more cynical and/or misogynistic fans who automatically thought that way.

Meanwhile, the Paris store owner gets to demonstrate his cool alertness. And Senna will doubtless be torn about having her eyes masked in that third image. She wouldn't really want to be known to have visited that museum, but do these people really not want to see every inch of her?

Oh, with any luck, there's a multi-way evil scheme pile-up coming there real soon now.

I suspect that if Zoe discovers half of what's been going on, she'll shake her head and go order a large and expensive vodka martini.

Weird - I know Josh, too. Not very well, but we're from the same place.

Marie, put down the Mimsy Molar before you get him sticky.

Some (most?) of them are probably Wii games as well, since she didn't have a Wii. And since it says "1st party", two Zeldas, two Mario Galaxies, Mario Kart Wii (one of the boxes is probably this w/wheel), WarioWare, New Mario Bros Wii, and so forth will be in there too.

Alex and Marie are heavily biased to "pro-Sandra" (for now, at least). That carries it's own problems, as can be seen by the fact that they're practically running a stalking ring here!

Oh, I don't know him real life kinda thing, we just know each other online. I mean, I'm halfway across the world after all ^o^

Though we have met each other at SDCC. He's a very cool guy.
